providing an outer capacitor plate over the capacitor dielectric layer.

In accordance with another aspect of the invention, a method of forming a capacitor comprises the following steps:

providing a node location to which electrical connection to a capacitor storage node is to be made;

providing a capacitor molding layer outwardly of the node location;

providing a container contact opening through the molding layer to the node location;

providing a series of alternating first and second layers of semiconductive material over the molding layer within the container contact opening, one of the first and second layers having an average conductivity enhancing dopant concentration of greater than about 5×10¹⁹ ions/cm³, the other of the first and second layers having an average conductivity enhancing dopant concentration from 0 ions/cm³ to about 5×10¹⁹ ions/cm³, at least one of the first and second layers being selectively etchable relative to the other of the first and second layers;

removing the alternating first and second layers of semiconductive material from outwardly of the capacitor molding layer to define isolated first and second container members of the other of the first and second layers within the container contact opening;

selectively etching the one of the first and second layers of semiconductive material from between the first and second container members and from remaining portions of the container contact opening, the selective etching leaving a pedestal disk of the one of the first and second layers of semiconductive material elevationally between the first and second container members;

providing a capacitor dielectric layer over the first and second container members; and

providing an outer capacitor plate over the capacitor dielectric layer.

In accordance with still a further aspect of the invention, a capacitor construction comprises:

first and second electrically conductive capacitor plates separated by an intervening capacitor dielectric layer, the first capacitor plate comprising first and second container members, the second container member being received inside of the first container member, the first and second container members comprising a respective ring portion and a respective base portion; and

a pedestal disk positioned elevationally intermediate the first container member base and the second container member base to space and support the second container member relative to the first container member.

Referring to FIG. 1, a semiconductor wafer fragment in process is indicated generally with reference numeral 10. Such comprises a bulk semiconductor substrate having an electrically conductive diffusion region 14 provided therein. Such comprises a node to which electrical connection to a capacitor storage node is to be made. An electrically insulative molding layer 16 is provided outwardly of the upper surface of node 14. Layer 16 preferably comprises a silicon dioxide material, such as borophosphosilicate glass (BPSG) having a boron or phosphorus dopant concentration of from 1% to 10%. Accordingly in the preferred embodiment, molding layer 16 comprises an intrinsically insulative material (i.e., SiO₂) having a conductivity enhancing dopant impurity (i.e., phosphorus) provided therein. An initial container contact opening 18 is provided through molding layer 16 to the outer surface of node 14, which for purposes of the continuing discussion comprises an example node location 17.

A first layer 20 of semiconductive material is provided over molding layer 16 and to within initial container contact opening 18 to node location 17 to less than completely fill initial container contact opening 18. Thus, a first remaining container contact opening 22 is formed. An example and preferred semiconductive material is silicon, such as amorphous silicon or polycrystalline silicon. First layer 20 in one embodiment is provided either in situ or after deposition to have an average conductivity enhancing dopant concentration of from 0 ions/cm³ to about 5×10¹⁹ ions/cm³.

Referring to FIG. 2, a second layer 24 of semiconductive material is provided over first layer 20 and to within first remaining container contact opening 22 to less than completely fill first remaining contact opening 22. Thus, a second remaining container contact opening 26 is formed. Second layer 24 of semiconductive material again preferably comprises silicon, such as amorphous or polycrystalline silicon. Second layer 24 is either in situ or after deposition provided to have an average conductivity enhancing dopant concentration of greater than about 5×10¹⁹ ions/cm³. Second layer 24 of semiconductive material is selectively etchable relative to first layer 20 of semiconductive material.

Referring to FIG. 3, a third layer 28 of semiconductive material is provided over second layer 24 and to within second remaining contact opening 26. Again, the preferred base semiconductive material for layer 28 is amorphous or polycrystalline silicon. Such has an average conductivity enhancing dopant concentration like first layer 20 of somewhere from 0 ions/cm³ to about 5×10¹⁹ ions/cm³. Second layer 24 of semiconductive material is selectively etchable relative to third layer 28 of semiconductive material and, as described above, selectively relative to first layer 20. Third layer 30 is provided to a thickness to less than completely fill second remaining container contact opening 26, and thus leave a third remaining contact opening 30.

Referring to FIG. 4, a fourth layer 32 of semiconductive material is provided over third layer 28 and to within third remaining contact opening 30. Again, such preferably comprises amorphous or polycrystalline silicon. Fourth layer 32 is provided to have an average conductivity enhancing dopant concentration of greater than about 5×10¹⁹ ions/cm³, and preferably constitutes the same essential dopant concentration as second layer 24. Fourth layer 32 of semiconductive material is selectively etchable relative to first layer 20 and third layer 28. Fourth layer 32 completely fills third remaining container contact opening 30. Thus, a series of alternating first-type layers 20, 28 and second-type layers 24 and 32 are provided over molding layer 16 within container contact opening 18.

Referring to FIGS. 5 and 6, the described first, second, third and fourth layers of semiconductive material are removed from outwardly of capacitor molding layer 16 to define isolated first and second container members 34 and 35, respectively, of first and third layers 20 and 28, respectively, within initial container contact opening 18. Such step is preferably conducted by a chemical-mechanical polishing or other etchback step. First container member 34 and second container member 35 comprise a respective ring portion 36 and a respective base portion 38. Further, second container member 35 defines outer radial edges 40, while first container member 34 defines outer radial edges coincident with initial container contact opening 18.

Referring to FIG. 7, second layer 24 of semiconductive material is selectively etched from between first and second container members 34 and 35, leaving a pedestal disk 42 of second layer material elevationally between first container member 34 and second container member 35. Fourth layer 32 is also selectively etched from remaining portions of container contact opening 18, such as from within second contact opening 30. An example of a wet etch chemistry for selectively etching heavily doped silicon (i.e., greater than 5×10¹⁹ ions/cm³) relative to lightly doped silicon (i.e., less than 5×10¹⁹ ions/cm³) includes a mixture of 0.7% HF, 50% to 54% HNO₃, 2.6% CH₃ COOH, with the remainder being deionized water (percents are volume percent). The greater the difference between the dopings of the first/third and second/fourth layers, the greater the selectivity. For example, the above chemistry when utilized with a totally undoped first/third layer and a second/fourth layer doping of 2×10²⁰ ions/cm³ resulted in a selectivity of 120:1. The silicon dopant was phosphorus. Dry etch or vapor etch chemistries can also be used.

Pedestal disk 42 comprises outer radial edges 44 which are received radially inward of second container member 35 outer radial edges 40. In this described preferred embodiment, the selective etching removes all second layer material 24 from between ring portions 36 of first container member 34 and second container member 35.

After the selective etching, first and second container members 34 and 35 are conductively doped to an average dopant concentration of greater than about 5×10¹⁹ ions/cm³ and even more preferably to a concentration greater than or equal to 2×10²⁰ ions/cm³. Such doping can be accomplished by ion implantation or heat diffusion using an appropriate diffusion gas. Alternately, molding layer 16 can be provided to a sufficiently high phosphorus or other conductivity impurity doping concentration (i.e., from 1%-10%) such that the doping includes out-diffusing conductivity enhancing dopant impurity from molding layer 16 into first container member 34.

Referring to FIG. 8, a capacitor dielectric layer 46 is provided over first container member 34 and second container member 35. An outer capacitor plate layer 48 is subsequently provided over capacitor dielectric layer 46, resulting in a composite capacitor construction. Containers 34 and 35 in combination define a first capacitor plate of such capacitor.

Variations in method and construction to that described above are of course contemplated, with the invention only being limited by the accompanying claims appropriately interpreted in accordance with the doctrine of equivalents. By way of example only and not of limitation, the ordering of the heavily doped and lightly doped layers 20, 24, 28 and 32 can be reversed. An alternate chemistry can be utilized to selectively etch undoped silicon selectively relative to doped silicon. An example chemistry for such purpose is HF 0.53 volume percent, HNO₃ at 37.63 volume percent, CH₃ COOH at 22.58 volume percent, NH₄ F at 4.21 volume percent, with the remaining being deionized water at 35.05 volume percent. Where the lower doped layer is entirely undoped and the heavily doped layer has a dopant concentration of 2×10²⁰ ions/cm³, a selectivity of greater than 3:1 etching of undoped to doped silicon is obtained.

Further by way of example only, provision of fourth layer 32 might be eliminated. In such event, third layer 28 would preferably be provided as a thicker layer to overcome any tendency of the etch to etch the lower or undoped layer. Such third layer 28 could also be provided to completely fill second remaining contact opening 26, although this would not be most preferred due to minimization of exposed surface area for the capacitor dielectric and second capacitor plate. Further, the FIG. 7 construction might be vacuum annealed or subjected to any of other various process steps to roughen its surface or otherwise increase surface area. Additionally, some or all of molding layer 16 might be removed prior to provision of the capacitor dielectric and second plate layers to provide external capacitance surface area outside of the containers.

Further by way of example only, the alternating layers might constitute different selectively etchable materials other different degree doped semiconductive materials, such as tungsten, titanium, ruthenium and compounds thereof.

Yet another possible example construction 10a is shown in FIG. 9. Like numerals from the first described embodiment are utilized where appropriate, with differences being indicated with the suffix "a". Here, pedestal disk 42a has outer edges 44a which are substantially radially coincident with second container member 35 outer radial edges 40.

FIG. 10 illustrates still a further alternate embodiment, with differences being indicated by the suffix "b". Here, pedestal disk 42b effectively extends radially to ring portion 36 of first container member 34, thus positioning pedestal disk outer radial edges radially outward of second container member 35 outer radial edges 40. Yet in both these two example described embodiments, the selective etching has been conducted to remove all second layer material 24 from between ring portions 36 of first and second container members 34 and 35, respectively. Alternately, not all of second layer material 24 might be removed between the ring portions such that a portion thereof extends upwardly therebetween. However, most preferably, etching is conducted to produce the FIG. 7 construction which has the advantage of exposing the greatest amount of surface area within initial container contact opening 18 for the first or storage node plate of a capacitor.

Still yet another alternate embodiment is described with reference to FIGS. 11 and 12. Differences in construction are illustrated with the suffix "c" or with different numerals. Here, fourth deposited layer 32c is deposited to less than completely fill third remaining contact opening 30, thus leaving a fourth remaining contact opening 33. In the context of the first described FIGS. 1-8 embodiment, fourth remaining contact opening 33 is filled or plugged with a fifth layer 37 of semiconductive material of the same conductivity doping as first layer 20 and third layer 28.

Referring to FIG. 12, selective etching is then conducted to etch layers 20, 28 and 27 to leave remaining pedestal disks 42c and 55. Ion implanting or gas diffusion doping could be conducted to conductively dope pedestal disks 42c and 55. Alternately, out diffusion from containers 34c and 35c might provide sufficient conductivity doping. Pedestal 55 would constitute an electrical interconnect between an inner first container 34c and the underlying container storage node. Pedestal disk 42c would constitute an electrical interconnect between first container 34c and second container 35c. Subsequent provision of a capacitor dielectric layer and second capacitor plate layer would advantageously then also overlap over the outer sidewalls of first container member 34c.

It is to be understood, however, that the invention is not limited to the specific features shown and described, since the means herein disclosed comprise preferred forms of putting the invention into effect.
